This really blew me away. Seriously. Watch it if you look at nothing else today.
Yes, STARE AT THE SUN, this time it's totally safe.

This is where all the discussion is, but the poster links the source here, and there's a whole lot more amazing photography meets editing.

Worth it if you're into celestial bodies.

Wow absolutely amazing and mesmerizing to watch. Since the sun is this enormous blob of plasma, it doesn't have to rotate as one clump like solid objects do. Instead, it's divided into 4 zones/layers and each spins at a slightly different rate. The fastest zone (the equator) spins around its axis every 24 days: https://www.livescience.com/32894-does-the-sun-rotate.html
Waw, never knew the sun was in layers..
